My wife and I stayed at Hermitage bay in September for 2 weeks. In a nut shell we had a wonderful time and will defiantly be going back in the future. If you are looking for excellent accommodation / excellent staff / great food and a wonderful setting to relax and enjoy the weather this is the resort. We stayed in a hill side resort which was only a 2 minute walk from the reception.. All the hill side cottages have a plunge pool which was wonderful to relax in and cool off. Our room ambassador “Hyacinth " was fantastic, our room was cleaned every day and she took care of our every need including getting the drinks we requested , she took care of all dinner reservations and really added to our stay. It is hard to talk about the staff without mentioning them all however I would like to mention Taj,Roselyn,Linda,Jody and all the staff in the restaurant as they really try and succeed to make sure you are enjoying your holiday. Thanks also to Devon who made sure I knew what I was doing in the Hobby cats on the beach.

There only slight negative were the bugs however if you go prepared you will be Ok.

Thanks to everyone at Hermitage Bay who made our stay one to remember.

The club atmosphere really adds to the holiday and we meet some really great people. Hello to the Shirley heights 10 and look forward to meeting up soon.

My wife and I have just returned after 10 magical days at the Hermitage Bay. The Hotel is located in a beautiful and remote setting offering tranquility and seclusion ideal for complete relaxation. Without doubt the true gem of this hotel is the staff who operate on the basis of nothing is too much trouble , even the managers and owner will take time to converse with guests. Having found a deserted beach about 40min walk from the hotel we spoke with staff about spending longer at this beach the following day. Immediately we were informed that a packed lunch would be prepared and delivered which it was by catamaran boat, it was superb. All the villas are well furnished and equipped with the hillside villas having the benefit of a private plunge pool. If you choose this hotel dump your mobile's and laptops and recharge your own batteries. Highly recommended.

We stayed at the Hermitage on our honeymoon, the last week of September. It was the best vacation we have each taken and we were so sad to leave. Everything I have to say is positive, b/c if you find something to complain about, you are seriously searching.

- Although the suites are amazing, the pool is amazing, etc these are obvious...the best part of our stay was their staff. I have never stayed somewhere and had every person say hello and ask me how my day is going. Even the landscape guys pulling weeds will stop and say hello, it's amazing. They all want your stay to be a great one and will help you with anything, you just have to ask. Miss Debra cleaned our room spotless every day and Miss Linda and Tajah were such a blast at the bar. Not to mention the reception always finding time to help or allowing me to use their computer (since the guest computer had a virus). Absolutely the best staff I have ever seen, from management down, the best.

- The food is wonderful. We ate dinner out one night and regreted leaving, learned a lesson. Actually, both times we left the resort, we were anxious to get back.

There are so many great things about the Hermitage, but I won't repeat more of what the others have said. That was the most relaxing, fun 7 days of my life and we can't wait to go back! The bugs were no worse than here in the South, just keep your spray on and you'll be fine.

My husband I spent half of our honeymoon at Hermitage Bay and had an incredible time. The resort far exceeded our already high expectations. We had a hillside cottage with a plunge pool - the views were tremendous and the room was the nicest room we have ever stayed in...and we are hotel snobs! The food was great and the service was perfect. Everyone was so kind and eager to help with any request. We left for the 2nd half of our honeymoon and spent everyday wishing we were back at the Hermitage! We are looking forward to making many return trips!
